Wind farms

Arguments against windfarms in rural areas are not limited to purely aesthetic ones — there are practical concerns, too.

Sir, Richard Morrison’s support for the appeal by East Northamptonshire
District Council, English Heritage and the National Trust (times2,
Feb 15) against the disgraceful decision to build a hideous windfarm in
a beautiful part of that county’s landscape is to be applauded. However,
aesthetic considerations are not the only reasons why this and many other
wind turbine scams should be strongly resisted. They do not work.
